The saint behind the name
Amos the Prophet
June 15, Prophet, Αμώς
The Holy Prophet Amos was a shepherd and dresser of sycamore trees from Tekoa, called by God in the eighth century before Christ to prophesy to the northern kingdom of Israel. A plain man with no schooling of the prophets, he spoke fearlessly against the injustice of the rich and the emptiness of worship without righteousness, declaring the word of the Lord: let justice roll down like waters.
